DIGESTIVE HEALTH

Digestive health means looking after everything from the mouth to the other end of the digestive tract. When looking at digestive health, practically everything is involved; a body having trouble with digestion often shows symptoms of skin disorders, headaches, fatigue, mood swings, hormone imbalances, and many other types of symptoms that might not be obviously digestive in origin. Dr. Bernard Jensen, a famous digestive health doctor believed that ".death begins in the colon.". We certainly feel that a healthy colon and digestive tract will assist the body in healing whatever other problems are present. Cleaning out the colon and normalising the bowel bacteria colonies can make a huge difference in things like weight control, asthma, back pain, mood & depression and food cravings.

Digestive problems include constipation, IBS, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, Gastro-oesophageal reflux disorder (GERD), halitosis, excessive wind and bloating. Many clients find that a short program of colonic hydrotherapy together with using appropriate bowel support compounds and therapeutic-strength doses of clinical grade probiotics can help normal function and regularity to return.

Symptoms that appear initially to be of digestive origin are often found to be linked to hormonal imbalances. This applies to any age and not just menopausal ladies. We live increasingly stressful lifestyles and stress robs our body of the necessary repair and regeneration hormones, leading to things like IBS symptoms and chronic constipation. Our approach looks at all the symptoms a client is experiencing to see if there is a general imbalance in the hormones which can be causing digestive upsets.

The digestive system and the hormonal (endocrine) system cannot be separated and to treat one without due regard for the other is like only seeing half the picture. Along with colonic hydrotherapy and bowel support, we offer a full range of hormone tests and we can recommend and source natural and bio-identical hormones to rectify any deficiencies. Remarkable results can be obtained from this two-pronged approach.
